Is it normal to not be able to hold a conversation for longer than 5 minutes

I find it very hard to hold a conversation for longer than 5 minutes; I either have nothing more to say, or get bored with it!!! Tell me your opinion, and any advice you have would be helpful.

But, I can hold a much longer conversation with like a girlfriend or family member. I can probably hold a 30-45 min conversation tops, with these people...

I also find that I get irritated with people after being around them for more than an hour!!! Anyone else??

    Yeah I'm like that too. The only person I can talk to forever nonstop is my girlfriend.

    Me too. Especially work mates. Don't worry about it. If we need to talk. We will.

    people are built differently. I'd personally prefer to be around someone who is like you are. Typically a girl.

    Sounds like you're either really dull or just arrogant. If you can't converse, you just don't do it enough. Force yourself.

    Yeah there is only two people I can talk to for a pong time and that's my mum and my boyfriend. Course if someone calls me on the phone they can easily keep me on the phone for a half hour because I feel weird getting off the phone with people. Doesn't mean I will talk much though.

    If you're interested in people and the world, you'll find that you can talk to anyone forever. The world is an amazing, astonishing place and if you cut yourself off from it, you're not going to make the best of it.
